A farm that holds the memory of the Menorcan countryside.

Between Ferreries and Ciutadella, Binisues preserves a way of life connected to the land for generations. The farmhouse, the manor house and the old tools and implements tell the story of how people lived and worked here over the decades.

THE CRAFT

How do we make it?

01

Raw milk

It all starts on the farm.

Artisan Mahón-Menorca PDO cheese is made with raw milk from the same farm. This is where the difference begins.

02

Fogasser

Four corners and an unmistakable shape.

The curd is wrapped in a cotton cloth, the fogasser, pressed and tied with the lligam cord. The folds leave the characteristic mark of artisan cheese on each piece.

03

Time

Brine, air and ageing.

After pressing come brining, air-drying and ageing. The pieces are turned and the rind is worked throughout the process until the young, semi-cured or cured cheese develops its character.
